The first crack of dawn sent a blade of sunlight right into Jack's eyes while in bed.
"GAAAAH, Fuck you sun!!! I was mid-way through a dream about demoknight trimp through Upward and about to behead a Potassium Bonnet medic main with the Burly Beast."
"Might as well get up then and find the arena"
Jack grumbles and gets up from the mediocre bedframe and grabs his gear from the closet. He equipped his rocket launcher, capper, market gardener and puts on his gunboats.
He wanders out of the tavern in search of the arena. As he is walking, he hears explosions going off in the distance with roars of audience in afterwards. He sees more people hauling scrap, moving wagons of gear, and some heavily armed Junkers walking to the arena.
As Jack is walking to the arena he sees a door leading to registration and zero line.
Jack goes up to the desk and a clerk with a rusty metal arm and a vocoder box for his mouth with a dead eyed expression eyes him warily.
Clerk: Are you here to sign up for the arena? If you are please sign this liability waver and property claim. zzztch
"Well yes, I am here to sign up for the arena"
Jack looks through the registration and puts his name as Saxton Mann and snickers to himself for the totally clever name. The clerk looks at him snickering and sighs to himself.
Clerk: Another crazy. Right, you are all signed up, head inside to the left and go to the challenger area.
Jack nods to the clerk and walks off to the challenger area. On the way over, he hears a big BOOM and a short man with a pegleg falls flat in front of him.
"Crickey that was beautiful BOOM, still needs some proper adjustment, but I think I'm close to getting the proper angle to launch me into New Zealand. Wha-Hey there stranger, Junkrat's the name, nice rocket launcher."
Jack: "Nice to meet ya Junkrat, my name is Saxton Mann, and thanks for the compliment."
Junkrat: "You look like a merc, but you have a similarity to me I can't quite place, wait wait, do you love explosions?"
Jack: "Who doesn't, and whoever does has never been blown up before."
Junkrat: "I think you and I are going to have a blasted time, you plan on fighting in the arena then. Nice, looking forward to your match."
Jack tossed Junkrat the full metal drill hat. "I think this hat will suit you better than me."
Junkrat blinks and the hat lands on his head perfectly. "Woah, thanks mate." He puts it on his head, The hat is tilted to the side and makes him look even more scrappy. He poses with the hat and cackles in enjoyment.
Junkrat: "Looking forward to your fight mate. Make some big BOOMS."
He waved Jack goodbye and walked towards the viewing area to meet with his partner.

Jack sees the reward and snorts.
"ooh the Begger's Bazooka, I missed you so much, I missed my enemy and hit random spies all the time with you."
Jack walks off to the challenge area and sits down on a bench and looked at his stat sheet.
